Simone Biles Rising

2024

Simone Biles Rising (2024) is a documentary released ahead of the Paris Olympic Games.

The documentary explores the champion gymnast’s childhood in foster care & subsequent adoption, the overwhelming shame she felt after dropping out of the 2020 Olympics, and her preparation for 2024 Games.

Simone Biles has tattooed on her collar bone the line of a poem from Maya, And Still I Rise, because, as she says in the documentary, she has always risen.
